This is my balsa wood bridge , i had fun building it. I had to research other types of bridges such as Truss, beam , arch , and others to help me make a design of my owns.The goal was to make a bridge out of balsa wood and glue. You had to use cutters to cut the wood how you wanted it. I learned that whatever looks is easy can be very hard at times.I lalso learned that hands on projects is the best and yu stcks have to have accuracy and be a certain angle to construct a well built bridge.

This is my marble sorter i think out of all my projescts this was the hardest. i say this because you had to have patience with the teacher and yourself. The goal of this project was to make a marble sorter out of FischerTechniks to sort two type of marbles so it can go in its own ben with a sensor telling it where to go and where to stop or go using RoboPro. I learned that using programs can be very hard trying to use a lot of your knowlege. Also i learned that hands on is the best.

This is my toothpick tower. I had fun doing this with my partner Summer Brown. The goal of this project was to create a tower out of toothpicks and gum drops. It had to be 4 stories high a hold a baseball for 20 seconds and no more than a hundred toothpicks.One of the things i learned was that even if it look easy it can be very hard at times. Another thing i learned is that triangles is better than squares when it comes to building things you want to structure. We WON !!!!!!!!
